Barber Marc from Brother Fox Barber Shop in Cowra.

Barber Comes To Canowindra: In approximately five weeks, Brother Fox is coming to Canowindra to offer their services. Brother Fox is a barber shop that has been operating in Cowra for the last six years, and in that time has developed an enviable reputation of offering a truly unique and professional experience for quality styling. Tommy Jeffs has generously offered a space at Montrose House for Brother Fox to set up a pop up barber shop – complete with the barber’s chairs. This whole idea came about when an older gentleman in our community who is battling dementia, preferred a male barber to cut his hair. His carer approached Brother Fox and Tommy for help, and set the wheels in motion. Contact Brother Fox on 0433 767 527 to make a booking.
